Fix problems with losing tokens in the jobserver, reported by Grant

tokens when using -j and -l at the same time, because waiting jobs were
not checked when determining whether any jobs were outstanding.  Second,
if you had an exported recursive variable that contained a $(shell ...)
function there is a possibility to lose tokens, since a token was taken
but the child list was not updated until after the shell function was
complete.

To resolve this I introduced a new variable that counted the number of
tokens we have obtained, rather than checking whether there were any
children on the list.  I also added some sanity checks to make sure we
weren't writing back too many or not enough tokens.  And, the master
make will drain the token pipe before exiting and compare the count of
tokens at the end to what was written there at the beginning.

and populate a new variable hash table for every target.

There is one issue remaining with this feature: it leaks memory.  In
pattern_search() we now initialize the file variables for every pattern
target, which allocates a hash table, etc.  However, sometimes we
recursively invoke pattern_search() (for intermediate files) with an
automatic variable (alloca() I believe) as the file.  When that function
returns, obviously, the file variable hash memory is lost.

Fix for bug #1276: Handle SHELL according to POSIX requirements.

POSIX requires that the value of SHELL in the makefile NOT be exported
to sub-commands.  Instead, the value in the environment when make was
invoked should be passed to the environment of sub-commands.  Note that

value of the SHELL variable in the environment of sub-commands.

GNU make _will_ use it in the environment of sub-commands.
